My Mother is 89 years old. And she has diabetes & heart-trouble. She had a heart-attack in 2004. And 2007, she was having chest pains.
Well to make along story short. They found out she had stomach ulcer. So when the doctors took their cam to check out her stomach they hit artery, causing her to get 2 blood clots. 1 month later she was in the hospital, the doctors had to do major surgery to get rid of the blood clot in her lungs & they later put her on Warfarin (coumadin) & she now is a diabetic. And she uses a walker for her osteo-arthritis. The coumadin, she takes 5mg. a-day & she eats 1/2 cup spinach 2 days of the week. And for her diabetes she takes 15 mgs. of Lantus every day & her blood sugar never goes over 120 & never goes below 70. They fix her stomach Ulcer with medication. And she can eat tomatoes & onions again. We have lots fun talking & reading books & occasionally she likes to go for a ride. She loves talking to our cat Sgt. Sassie Meowstein.
We love working recipes together. With Mom: I have lots of fun with her.
I am caring for my mother, Geri, who is 90 years old, living at home and the primary ailment is diabetes.
